[PSUBS-MAILIST] Fw: flang facing

>I am sure all sub builders have had there wife help out, I am sure there
are some good stories,,,,Brian....

I got Anita to help paint the inside of my sub with epoxy paint.   She
wasn't very happy with the limited dust suit, mask and gloves I provided
but I just said "oh you'll be ok" and shoved her inside, brush in hand.
She got paint in her hair which was impossible to get out and eventually
had to have her hair cut short.   Ive just about recovered from the ear
bashing now and I had to take her on holiday in compensation...... :)

Regards
James
